Go tell it on the mountain Over the hills and everywhere Go tell it on the mountain That Jesus Christ is bornWhile shepherds kept their watching O'er silent flocks by night Behold throughout the heavens There shone a holy lightGo tell it on the mountain Over the hills and everywhere Go tell it on the mountain That Jesus Christ is bornShepherds feared and trembled When low above the earth Rang out the angel chorus That hailed our saviour's birthGo tell it on the mountain Over the hills and everywhere Go tell it on the mountain That Jesus Christ is bornDown in a lowly manger The humble Christ was born And God sent our salvation That blessed Christmas mornGo tell it on the mountain Over the hills and everywhere Go tell it on the mountain That Jesus Christ is bornGo tell it on the mountain Over the hills and everywhere Go tell it on the mountain That Jesus Christ is born
